ford versus chevy
I work & plow with a 2002 F250 5.4. I drive and move my equiptment with a 2003 Chevy 2500HD 6.0. I can't help you with any deisel info. As far as I'm concerned the chevy is a much better truck. It will out pull & out handle the ford. and is a much more comfortable truck to drive & ride. Mechanically I've no serious trouble with either, and as a previous poster stated the chevy dealer is much better to deal with and worked much harder to sell me this truck.

Its hard to keep a truck for long in DEER COUNTRY. Of course I dont have a cell phone or tv to take my attention off the roads and have not totalled a truck on a deer yet but I do have many friends that have. In fact some guys seem to be magnets for deer hits.

Broken, I guess you never saw the special about some of our poorer folks that could not afford rifles and ammo. I watched it a few years back. They built big pipe bumpers one the fronts of the trucks and went ramming. They spottlighted a group of deer and drove right into them(in fields). If you gotta eat. They could not afford 2 guns, rifle and shotgun, so they just had a shot gun for small game, for deer, they would slit all the way around a bird shot(cheap) shell, leaving just a little tab of plastic to hold it together. when they fired, they whole end of the shell would go out like a slug.

That's called ringing the shell, NOT a good thing to do as it can blow up the barrel and really cause havic to anyone close by. I've seen it happen first hand.

"They built big pipe bumpers one the fronts of the trucks and went ramming."
I'm sure the question on everybody's mind is did they modify a Ford or a Chevy?"

Murf, you've gotta take it easy on old guys like me. I still don't equate RAM with Dodge trucks. To me they're just Power Wagons.

All in good fun friend, all in good fun.
BTW, up here they call them "Goat Trucks" because there's one on the hood. .
Now don't go mixing up Power Wagons in the conversation, we had one at our summer place for years, military surplus, complete with the big PTO driven winch. It didn't anywhere near resemble the later offerings labelled "Power Wagon" by those nice folks in Detroit. .
Best of luck.

As long as it is all in good fun, how about Toyota putting lettering on the rear fender ''TRD'' everytime I see it I think of abbreviations and I guess Ram or Goat ain't so bad..
